VARIATION OF PHASE-SPACE CONTOUR BY RADIATION PRESSURE IN A CAVITY WITH MOVABLE MIRROR

In this paper we show how the light impinging on a linear Fabry-Perot cavity with an oscillating end mirror changes its error contour shape. The analysis is performed by the phase space method considering the coupling with the external world. We also take into account the case of squeezed light in input concluding that the device is able to enhance the squeezing and convert phase squeezing into amplitude squeezing, but not vice versa.
